* myconfig / perl -V: remove randbits and add prototypeTim Bunce1997-09-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the myconfig / perl -V output, like the following example: Summary of my perl5 (5.0 patchlevel 4 subversion 1) configuration: Platform: osname=solaris, osvers=2.5, archname=sun4-solaris uname='sunos lion 5.5 generic_103093-03 sun4m sparc sunw,sparcstation-10 ' hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define bincompat3=y useperlio= d_sfio= Compiler: cc='gcc', optimize='-O6', gccversion=2.7.2.2 cppflags='-I/usr/local/include -I/opt/gnu/include' ccflags ='-I/usr/local/include -I/opt/gnu/include' stdchar='unsigned char', d_stdstdio=define, usevfork=false voidflags=15, castflags=0, d_casti32=define, d_castneg=define intsize=4, alignbytes=8, usemymalloc=y, randbits=15 Linker and Libraries: ld='gcc', ldflags =' -L/usr/local/lib -L/opt/gnu/lib' libpth=/usr/local/lib /opt/gnu/lib /lib /usr/lib /usr/ccs/lib libs=-lsocket -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt libc=/lib/libc.so, so=so useshrplib=false, libperl=libperl.a Dynamic Linking: dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=, ccdlflags=' ' cccdlflags='-fpic', lddlflags='-G -L/usr/local/lib -L/opt/gnu/lib' I'd like to change $randbits, in the Compiler section, for $prototype. Why remove randbits: randbits was added before we had such good and informative tests in the test suite. The tests now pinpoint the problem and explain the solution, including recommending the right value for randbits. Why add prototype: In the medium term there may be advantages to moving towards using ANSI C prototypes. At the moment there's no way of making an impact assessment. This would be a first step. Especially when combined with automated perlbug and perlbug -ok mail handling and archiving. While I'm on the subject, libpth and libs values should be in quotes. Any objections? (Please don't turn this into a "my compiler doesn't support prototypes" rant.) p5p-msgid: 199709290857.JAA07706@toad.ig.co.uk

MakeMaker managed to break it by *A::B = \&C::D; eval 'sub C::D {new one}'; After this CvGV(\&A::B) is *C::D, but &{*C::D} is the "new one". Patch follows (note that in this case we do not sacrifice having a subroutine name in debugger output ;-).

I put forward the only chunk which may be controversal, since it may have a minor performance penalty. It is independent of the others, so it can be freely deleted. The manipulations which correctly propagate to method calls: a) Pruning globs: delete $B::{method} b) Undefing subroutines: undef &B::method; c) Importing: *B::method = \&mymethod; Enjoy, p5p-msgid: <199612230645.BAA08378@monk.mps.ohio-state.edu> Subject: sv_gets patch Date: Sun, 22 Dec 1996 03:24:04 -0500 (EST) From: Ilya Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu> Files: pp_hot.c I sent this patch before as a part of pos $str = $str = /failing/g patch. Now I separate it in the case it was tainted by environment: Synopsis: $a = <FH>; does not work as expected if $a is magic (say, tied).

Fix overlapping memcpy test. Add check for ld. Use $cc instead, if on an ELF system. With -d, don't reuse config.sh unless $myuname matches. Warn more explicitly about changing compilers before reloading old config.sh. Detect Linux ELF format in nm scan. Better detection of d_castneg. (ISC 4.1 was passing the test, but couldn't cast in an argument list.) Suggest -fpic for dynamic loading if you're using GNU CC under any name. No longer test for byacc, fmod, or drem, since they are not used. Makefile.SH Use $ld, not ld (only matters for SVR4) Silence some byacc-related harmless error messages. README Suggest using -Dcc=gcc (or whatever). Warn about reusing old config.sh. (The warning was already there in 5.001; I've just expanded it a little.) Warn against using GNU as and GNU ld on SunOS & Solaris. config.H config_h.SH Updated to match Configure. doio.c Add socket includes. ext/Fcntl/Fcntl.xs Fix typo: s/SETFL/F_SETFL/; handy.h Check _G_HAVE_BOOL, not just if it's defined. hints/dynix.sh hints/hpux_9.sh hints/linux.sh hints/netbsd.sh hints/titanos.sh Updated. ELF on linux should probably work. installperl Install pod2html, pod2latex, and pod2man. lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm Updated to 4.091. (4.09 + a small writedoc() patch.) myconfig Now includes 'ld' command. perl.c Revised an #elif clause since Pyramid's cpp doesn't understand #elif. perl.h Fix U_L, I_V, and I_32 cast macros to ensure that the cast_ulong(), cast_iv(), and cast_i32() functions (if used) are passed a double. In particular, the FIXSTATUS macros were handing int's to U_L(). Remove unnecessary HAS_FMOD testing (See util.c). proto.h Remove my_fmod() prototype. (See util.c) sv.h Fix GV/CV typo. util.c Simplified cast_i32() and cast_iv() to mimic what *actually* happens on a SPARC running SunOS 4.1.3. (Previously, they did some complicated fmod() calculation. I've since discovered that's not what happens on the SPARC.) With this change, fmod() is no longer necessary. Hence my_fmod is removed. This also means the HAS_FMOD and HAS_DREM tests are no longer needed in Configure, so they are gone too. vms/config.vms Remove unnecessary HAS_FMOD and HAS_DREM defines. x2p/Makefile.SH Silence byacc-related things.

[editor's note: this commit combines approximate 4 months of furious releases of Andy Dougherty and Larry Wall - see pod/perlhist.pod for details. Andy notes that; Alas neither my "Irwin AccuTrack" nor my DC 600A quarter-inch cartridge backup tapes from that era seem to be readable anymore. I guess 13 years exceeds the shelf life for that backup technology :-(. ]
